Datapoint Nicaraguan Creole English/Syllable onsets
As in the case of San Andres Creole English, single consonants predominate in the onset. However, in Nicaraguan Creole English the reduction of two-consonant clusters is less advanced than in San Andres Creole English which is due to the more acrolectal nature of Nicaraguan. On the other hand, three-consonant onsets are rarer than in San Andres Creole English and indeed marginal as in most cases the English initial cluster str- has been palatalized to shr- as in the Creole English of Providence.
